Regan's first Christmas was a joy! Despite having a double ear infection and the beginning of pink eye, not to mention a new tooth (never again will we sing "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth---too much misery in getting a new tooth), she was in fairly good spirits! She didn't get into the presents like we had thought she would, but she had so much fun exploring all the paper, bows, and gifts not to mention the attention from family! She was just adorable in her two dresses :)

Alfalfa!
Bathtime!
Daycare Christmas play!
Regan took part in her first Christmas play last night! It was absolutely adorable and we are so thankful to have such a wonderful daycare provider. Although Regan's part was rather small, it was so cute to have the babies included in the festivities! They sang songs, performed a little skit and we had a snowball fight at the end! Since there's no snow yet, we had to use balled up paper instead; no one seemed to mind!
10 months old!

Regan's first pickle!!!
To keep her busy, we gave Regan a pickle at the dinner table on Monday afternoon at the ESPN Zone. It was a wonderful treat for her and she didn't even make a funny face! We all laughed at her as she ate her pickle right up :) The next day, we gave her a lemon and a lime and she seemed to enjoy sucking on those two as well! Silly little girl!
Washington DC Trip
On December 8th, we took our first vacation as a family and went to Washington DC for uncle Ben's 30th birthday! It was a big surprise to him and we all had a great time! Regan did great on the airplanes and slept through most of it. She loved all the attention and the time in her stroller walking around in the gorgeous weather! Unfortunately she won't remember much of the trip, that's why we took so many pictures!!
I'm gonna get you!

Here comes trouble!
This face just looks like trouble!! Well, the verdict is in; walking versus crawling???
................crawling. Despite her grumbles and whines, she can crawl pretty well! She's realizing that there's a balance piece invovled in walking and although she could make it places faster and without hurting her knees, she gets mad when we let go of her hand. So for now, it's learning how to look at the pretty Christmas tree from her knees, all while trying so hard not to touch it!

And she's off..........finally!
Regan can crawl!! Yep, that's right, she actually walked before she learned how to crawl. Nothing like making things confusing! She isn't perfect at either one, so now the question is: will she end up walking, or find that crawling is easier? We've been working on both tasks with her the last few days so we'll see which one she picks up faster!

Going for a ride!
My new rocking chair
Thanksgiving fun and our independent walker!!
Grandpa Leo took Regan for a walk around the house on Thanksgiving and somehow managed to get his arms all tangled up! She was in her glory despite grandpa's discomfort!
Regan also took her first steps alone on Thanksgiving! She was walking around with mom's help and suddenly found herself 3 steps away from mom without holding on! We were so proud of her. Can't wait for her to start walking more on her own (or can I?).
Stuck in the bucket!

9 months old today!
Regan is 9 months old today and still making us laugh everyday! She gives us big smiles every morning and it brightens the whole house. She still loves to walk around holding someone's hands and refuses to learn how to crawl; it's surprising that other crawling babies don't even phase her. Once she's up on her feet though, look out, her face lights up and she's off motoring around the house! We're really looking forward to the holidays this year, hopefully everyone's Christmas tree will stay in one piece!

Heirloom sweater
Bad hair day
Amanda's baby shower
Jen and I hosted a baby shower for Amanda today and the kids had lots of fun playing together! Jen's son, Nathan is a crawling machine (so Regan took a few notes) and Regan can walk all over with a little help (so Nathan took a few notes). Someday they'll both be running around and we'll wish they would sit still!

Messy girl!
Meal times have become increasingly messy lately! Today she learned the game "uh-oh" and will drop her spoon on the floor repeatedly throughout her meal, only to wait for mom give it back to her :) As you can see, she now likes green veggies! It only took her 3 months to warm up to them, and they still aren't her favorite.

8 months old!
Seems unbelievable that Regan is 8 months old already! We are constantly reflecting at how much she's grown and changed since February.
No crawling or scooting yet, but she'll flip over when we aren't looking! She's been eating baby food like it's going out of style and has tried some "real" food too (banana bread, crackers, cheese, and even a french fry!).
